The awarding of grants and privileges converted to the descendants of Moctezuma II in a way to survive throughout the colonial period. They wielded arguments grounded in their ancestry, the peaceful transfer to the Spanish crown of his patrimonial heritage as well as a presumed poverty or need. This analysis will focus on the only son successors of Moctezuma who survived the Spanish conquest: don Pedro Moctezuma Tlacahuepantzin. The awarding of grants, aids of costs and vacuum encomiendas were continuing between the last third of the sixteenth century to the end of the colonial period.
